It REALLY is snowing!!
I can't believe it. It is really snowing. The last time it snowed with accumulation was two years ago. It was gone by noon the next day! It is really pretty and I have a feeling that this snow is one that will be remembered.

Valentine's
I can't wait, tomorrow (I'm too tired to clean tonight) we get our kitchen table back. The last few days have been filled with making our valentine's for the girls parties tomorrow. They turned out really cute with matching boxes to boot!! As soon as I learn to post a pic, I will. But I'm still not done. Love bug's (our youngest) still aren't finished. She got store bought ones which I'm about to stick fruit roll ups on.
My in laws come tomorrow. We are all very excited to see Papaw and Granny. They will be keep the girls will Hubby and I stay in Frisco for the weekend. This is the first overnight that we have had together in 6 years. The only things we have planned are eating at Mimi's and PF Chang's. YUMMY!!! Other than that we will play it by ear and see what we find when we get there.
As for the weather, they are really calling for snow here. Really? REALLY? I'll believe it when I see it. I'm always leery of a forecast the predicts snow. It usually never happens. It's when they don't predict it that worries me. For example the other day in Fort Smith it was mainly supposed to rain, perhaps snow some and bam, they get dumped with a TON of snow. Well, what would be considered a ton in AR!! I'll let you know what happens.

So much for keeping up!
In Sunday School we talked about priorities and consistancy. It got me thinking, what are my priorities? I can make a wonderful list of all the things I deem important but do I truly put them at the top of my list each and every day? Are my actions consistant with my priorities? Sadly, if I am honest, no. So, back to the drawing board I go. Perhaps this time I will WRITE DOWN my priorities and hang them in various spots around the house to remind me to put down that remote, turn away from the computer and stop worrying about things I cannot change. I have allowed these three things to take up way too much of my time. When I've compiled my list, I'll share and perhaps you can help to hold me accountable.

Getting started...
Since moving almost two years ago, I've been thinking of starting a blog. So, here I am and I can't think of a thing to say! Hopefully, my family and friends will enjoy a small peak into our lives here in the rose capital of the world. We have made some good friends here while missing those we love back home.
Right now I'm trying to get four little girls to lay down on their sleeping bags. Friday's are typically pizza and a movie night around here and we usually have an extra girl or two. Tonight was Pizza Hut pizza (my oven is currently not working!) and the new Barbie movie. Everyone had a great time. The girls were celebrating their first week of school. We've been homeschooling and after much prayer decided that putting them back in school was best for our family. They are LOVING it! Both girls have jumped in with both feet making new friends and catching up with school work. This biggest issue is cursive. They start with cursive in K5 so cuddlebug (my second grader) is practicing every night.
Well, the natives are still restless and I'd better go settle them down. I have to be at church by 7:30 in the morning. I'm volunteering at a women's conferance featuring Angela Thomas. I can't wait!!
